Copper reducing tee with three sweat cup ends, two large and one smaller branch

Mueller Industries, Inc.

Mueller Industries, Inc. STREAMLINE W 04087 Copper Reducing Tee coupling

SKU CH-F6ER-KJYJK

A wrot copper reducing tee joins 1-1/2 in and 3/4 in tubes with sweat connections for potable water systems

  • Reducing tee joins 1-1/2 in and 3/4 in copper lines
  • Wrot copper construction resists corrosion in potable water systems
  • Sweat cup connections create permanent leak-free joints
  • Precleaned fitting saves preparation time on site
  • Center stop omitted for full flow through all ports

Copper Reducing Tee 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 3/4

This wrot copper reducing tee connects two 1-1/2 inch copper tube runs with a 3/4 inch branch for potable water systems. Each end uses a cup sweat connection that is precleaned for soldering. The fitting includes a center stop to control insertion depth during assembly.

Replacing a straight coupling or larger tee

Swap this fitting in when a supply line needs a smaller branch without reducing the main run diameter. The jump is worth it when the existing layout calls for a 3/4 inch take-off from a 1-1/2 inch header and soldered joints are the preferred joining method.

Verify tube sizes and solder compatibility

Confirm the installed copper tubing matches the 1-1/2 inch and 3/4 inch copper tube size designations before ordering. Ensure the system design allows for sweat solder connections and that local codes permit wrot copper fittings for potable water applications.

Questions about this item

What copper tube sizes does the STREAMLINE W 04087 reducing tee accept on its three cup connections?

The tee has two 1-1/2 in. copper tube size cup connections and one 3/4 in. copper tube size cup connection, all designed for sweat soldering.

What is the most common installation mistake when sweat-soldering this reducing tee?

Overheating the 3/4 in. branch before the two 1-1/2 in. runs are up to temperature causes the solder to flow unevenly and can leave a cold joint on the larger tubes.

How often should the soldered joints on this wrot copper tee be inspected or re-made in a potable water system?

Properly soldered copper joints are permanent and require no scheduled re-making; inspect only if a leak appears or during a whole-system pressure test.
